Chapter 24 The Wayward Little Store Manager

"Lu Xi, do you want to play basketball together?" As soon as school was over, Lu Xi's friends at school invited him to play basketball together. Not necessarily losing, their school urgently needs players like Lu Xi to support the field!So these days they are particularly active!

"No need, I have to go home and cook." Lucy smiled and politely refused the enthusiastic students to pack their schoolbags.

"Is there someone at home in such a hurry to go home? Girlfriend? Show us when it's time!" The boys looked at Lu Xi with a teasing smile, while the girls lamented.

The boys hope that Lucy can leave the order as soon as possible, leaving them a way out. After all, more than half of the girls in the class have a crush on Lucy. You will know how popular Lucy is.

Leaving aside Lu Xi's appearance, Lu Xi looks very tall and thin. Although he is a little cold when his face is expressionless, he smiles very warmly.He is also a representative of the top student in the class, and he is also very good at sports. If Lucy leaves the order, it will undoubtedly leave a way for the boys to survive.

"I don't have a girlfriend, but I have a picky eater called Wang Jiang." Lu Xi sighed thinking of a certain animal waiting to be fed at home. He was very picky about ordinary dishes even though he had eaten all the dark dishes. His good looks are enough.

In this way, a week of leisurely study routine has passed, and it is Saturday again.

His catering room is about to open, the Lunar Eclipse Room, which is the catering room he inherited from his retired grandpa.Because he didn't want to be deserted, he handed over this old shop to Lu Xi to take care of, although because Lu Xi usually had classes, he only opened on weekends.He only accepts two tables of guests each time, and only accepts appointments. Because of this willful way of opening a store that is completely unprofitable, people around and diners call Lu Xi "the willful little store manager".

There are basically only some old customers who will visit this store, and if Lu Xi is in a good mood, he can entertain some predestined guests without making an appointment.That is to say, apart from the reservations made, when the restaurant will open and how long it will be open depends entirely on the owner Lu Xi's own opinion. Although Lu Xi's cooking skills are slightly rough in the mouth of Cheng Yilang, it is undeniable that his delicious food , plus the buff bonus, and the fact that he has money and doesn't need to rely on this small shop to make money, Lucy has never worried that this shop will go bankrupt.

"Today's menu is secret omelet rice." Let's get started!Lucy put on an apron, full of interest.

Shiro Ichiro was wearing loose pajamas with disheveled hair, his expressionless face made him look very indifferent and serious, but the scene with his golden eyes staring at the busy figure in the kitchen was extraordinarily warm.

During the process of Lu Xi's cooking, Shiroichiro has been watching from the side, from preparing the ingredients to serving the dishes, and the satisfied and happy expressions of the customers after eating.Joichiro suddenly discovered that Lucy did not regard this as a task or a job but as a hobby, and worked hard for the pure happy smiles of the guests after eating the dishes he made.

There is no need for victory, no innovation, or even research, or those in themselves may not be that important.Lucy cares about the mood of the diners. If he can make the diners happy, he can innovate, and he can continue to study and improve the formula.

This is a completely different path from him...

He is a pioneer of gastronomy, a person who is constantly at the forefront of pioneering the road of gastronomy. As a student, he has left the stagnant crowd to pursue a new oasis of gastronomy.

He was used to this kind of life, and then one day he suddenly discovered that this is okay, that he can rest, and that he doesn't move forward...

[It was always himself who persecuted him. 〕

In the past, his curiosity has been driving and persecuting him. At the beginning, he also had the joy of reaping the fruits, but he didn't know when it started, he just remembered that he had to keep moving forward... When did it start? Starting to put the cart before the horse?Joichiro sighed, but even so he still wanted to move forward, the unknown territory he was looking for.

Lucy believes that the so-called pioneers are great, because there is a brand-new unknown world in front of them. To develop it, to explore it, to turn it into a "known" known to the public, it is not anyone who has personally experienced it. incomprehensible.But just seeing the tip of the iceberg is enough to shock people to tears, as if the softest corner of their hearts has been hit hard.

If he had to use one word to describe them, Lucy thought it would be "sacrifice". If he had to use one word to describe these people, Lucy thought it should be "hero".

Wouldn't it be a pity that the current culinary world would have stagnated without these pioneers who are constantly advancing?Obviously, it was such an era of prosperous cooking.

However, Lu Xi didn't know all this, and he couldn't know what Shiroichiro was thinking in his heart, but he knew that without knowing it, he found that Shiroichiro seemed to have changed a little, and he seemed to be heading in a good direction. enough.

Joichiro knows better than anyone that the so-called pioneer is his own will. He will be stimulated and satisfied by new challenges. This is what he wants to do. He knows this more deeply and clearly than anyone else.Now he just went astray a bit and was a little confused, but this small restaurant with warm lighting and shelter from the wind and rain, and its young chef, seemed to be able to bring him something.

"Joichiro, remember to wash the dishes." The young and energetic Saiba Joichiro was about to set off for the future, but his enthusiasm was instantly extinguished by the dishwashing water mixed with foam.Well~ You don't need to think about it so much, if you don't clean the dishes, that fellow Lucy will probably be angry.

I don't know if the silver guy is okay, it seems that the silver guy was about to cry when he left, looking at the silver knife and fork in the water, Joichiro couldn't help but think of a certain companion in the Jixing dormitory.

"Joichiro! Come and help!" Chengichiro's thoughts were interrupted by Lucy's shout, and when he looked up, he saw an excited Lucy carrying a huge cardboard box into the house.

"There's a small one in the back, please." Lucy poked his head out from behind the box and moved the box into the kitchen with ease. Joichiro, who was about to help him, turned around and moved the small box that Lucy said Come in.

"What is this?" Shiroichiro vaguely smelled a smell, and it must be filled with ingredients!

"The spices I ordered, as well as the venison, are going to be marinated today for the guests tomorrow morning." Lucy opened the bags of spices in the big box and put them into glass bottles that had already been prepared, while the city Ichiro also opened the venison in the small box.

This is!Joichiro stared at the top-quality venison in the box, his eyes sparkled!The skin of the venison is a little dry, and its muscle is very beautiful light red, like a crystal gem, and the color is very uniform and has a beautiful luster. It is completely conceivable how it will look like after being made into a dish delicious!

Especially this piece of thigh meat, it is completely conceivable that this road had a vigorous figure during his lifetime. Such good ingredients made him want to move a little bit, which is the instinct of a cook.
